EARLY LAND GRANT 



In the year 1761 the Legislature of Mass- 
achusetts passed an act granting to Benjamin 
Milliken, Moody Bridges, and Thos. Perley, 
agents for the legal representatives of Capt. John 
Tyler, and 56 others, — soldiers and officers in the 
Canada Expedition of 1690, a township of land 
east of Saco River. They proceeded to lay out a 
tract adjoining the town of Pickwocket, now 
Fryeburg, nine miles in length by six and a half 
miles in width, lying on both sides of Long Pond, 
and containing 37,440 acres. Their selection was 
confirmed by the Legislature, June 25, 1765, with 
the provision that a sixty-fourth part should be 
set apart for each, the first settled minister, for 
the support of the ministry, and for Harvard 
College, and that they settle 30 families, build a 
house of worship, and settle a learned Protestant 
preacher within six years. During the next 3^ear 



6 HISTORICAL 

that part west of Long Pond was surveyed in lots, 
half a mile long and one hundred rods wide, under 
the direction of Moody Bridges, Richard Peabody 
and Col. Thomas Poor. The town was then 
allotted in 86 equal shares among the 61 proprie- 
tors, one each for the ministry, for the minister, 
for the support of schools, for Harvard College, for 
the first settler in the township, and the remain- 
ing 20, lying east of Long Pond, and now in 
Harrison, the}^ held undivided. 

To encourage settlement they offered 100 
acres of this land to each settler who should clear 
12 acres of land, erect a house, and settle a family 
thereon before 1771. In 1767 a road was opened, 
sufficiently wide for passage on horseback, from 
Long Pond to Pearsontown Fort, at Standish 
Corner, and the name of Pondicherry, by which 
it had been known, was exchanged for that of 
Bridgton, in honor of Moody Bridges, proprietor's 
clerk, and a leading spirit in the enterprise. 



EARLY SETTLEMENT 



The first settler was Capt. Benjamin Kimball, 
a sailor, who came from Ipswich, Mass., in the 
spring of 1768, under an agreement with the 
proprietors to settle in the township by the 10th 



HISTORICAL. 7 

of June, and build a convenient house for the 
entertainment of travelers by the 10th of Septem- 
ber, to keep a store of goods, and also to build a 
sailboat of two tons' burden, with which he 
should hold himself in readiness to carry 
passengers and goods between the "carrying 
place" in Pearsontown and the head of Long Pond 
for a term of six years. For this service one 
"right" of land, comprising about 435 acres, was 
conveyed to him by the first deed drawn by the 
proprietors, and bearing date: "The sixth day of 
April, in the eighth 3^ear of the reign of Sovereign 
Lord, George the Third", etc., 1768; and two 
shillings sixpence a trip for his boat, six shillings 
a day for himself and five for an assistant. His 
assistant was Stephen Gates, from Andover, 
Mass., who afterwards settled on lot 6, range 7. 

Mr. Kimball kept an inn and small store of 
the most needed goods at the head of Long Pond, 
ran his boat and traded with the Indians until dis- 
abled by paralysis, from which he died in 1802. 

Timothy Gates, brother to Stephen, came at 
the same time, living a roving life in the woods 
until the outbreak of the war, when he enlisted. 
He was afterwards known as Sergeant Gates. 

Jacob Stevens came from Andover with his 
sons during the summer and built a saw-mill and 
grist-mill at the outlet of Crotched Pond, receiving 
from the proprietors five acres of land along that 



8 HISTORICAL. 

stream, one "right" of land, and lot No. 8 in range 
4, with the sole privilege of the stream so long as 
he should keep the mills in repair. From these 
mills, which were near the mouth of the stream, 
it took its name of Stevens' Brook. Mr. Stevens 
and his boys kept house for themselves, his wife 
remaining in Andover with her aged mother. In 
1777 his daughter Elizabeth, who was but four 
years old when he left home, came to Bridgton to 
be their housekeeper. 

In 1769, David Kneeland, from Topsfield, 
Mass., settled on the upper ridge, and planted the 
first orchard. He was followed, in 1770, by David 
Clark, who commenced clearing in the northeast 
corner of the town, near Mr. Kneeland. He left 
his farm to enter the army in 1776, returning at 
the end of the war. In 1772, the time for award- 
ing the merited lots was extended to August, 1773, 
and the amount of cleared land fixed at 6 instead 
of 12 acres. Enoch and Noah Stiles, stimulated 
by the brilliant offer made them at their homes in 
Andover, the headquarters of the proprietors, 
proceeded at once to Bridgton, where they made 
permanent settlements, but failed to secure the 
reward, owing to the heavy growth of timber and 
the extreme hardships of pioneer life. 

In 1772, Asael Foster, father of Asael, Francis, 
Amos P. and Moody Foster, came from Danvers, 
and built the first frame house in Bridgton, at 



HISTORICAL. 

what is now Sand Creek Post Office, and William 
Emerson, from Methuen, settled on the east side 
of Wood's Pond, near the outlet. They both 
proved able pioneers, and received "merited" lots 
of land of 100 acres each. 

Mrs. Foster was the first married woman 
settled in town, Mr. Kimball's housekeeper being 
his daughter. Her son, Moses Hale, Jr., born 
June 8, 1772, was the first white child born in the 
town, and, after some years' delay, received the 
100 acres promised. 

Reuben Burnham, from Bolton, Mass., the 
first deacon of the Congregational Church, settled 
near the center of the town in 1774. He was 
killed by a falling tree eleven years after. He 
was the father of Timothy Burnham. The next 
year, James Flint, of Reading, Mass., and Simeon 
Burnham, father of Nathaniel and Simeon Burn- 
ham, located on the west side of Crotched Pond; 
and Stephen Johnson settled on the lowlands on 
the east side of Wood's Pond. 

In 1776, Enoch Perley, a young man of 
twent3^-seven, son of Thomas Perle}^, one of the 
proprietors, came to Bridgton, and with that 
business sagacity still inherited by his descendants, 
saw the untold value in the dense pine forests 
which covered the land, valueless in itself from 
the immense wealth with wdiich it was encum- 
bered. To the rare sagacity he possessed, was 



10 HISTORICAL. 

joined an indifference for hardship and danger 
equal to that of his uncle, Gen. Israel Putnam. 
Making his camp alone in the woods, he ranged 
the forests for deer and bears, read, wrote poetry, 
and drew charts upon birch-bark; or from the top 
of Mount Prospect, near his cabin, viewed the 
surrounding country through his glass, finding 
time meanwhile to complete a house for the 
reception of his prospective bride. Such was his 
energy and skill in business affairs that, in 1777, 
the proprietors removed their headquarters from 
Massachusetts to Bridgton, and made him 
proprietor's clerk, placing all the records in his 
keeping. He held this important trust until the 
property having all been disposed of, the corpora- 
•tion ceased to exist. 

Mr. Perley abandoned his first house for a 
better one, in which the records of the company 
were burned on the night of Oct. 2, 1780, together 
with many interesting private records of early 
settlement gathered by Mr. Perley. The old 
house is still standing though moved from its 
original site. 

In 1779, Theodore Emerson, from Methuen, 
Isaiah Ingalls, from Andover, (a surveyor), and 
David Hale, from Templeton, Mass., were added 
to the colon3^ At the expiration of the Revolu- 
tionary War Robert Andrews located in the south 
part of the town, near Adam's Pond, living alone. 



HISTORICAL. 11 

He became a leading citizen, and at his death left 
$1000 as a fund for the relief of the industrious 
poor. Daniel Perley, from Boxford, and John 
Peabody, from Andover, came in 1780; and, in 
1781, Nathaniel, brother of David Hale, and 
Phineas Ingalls, of Andover. In June, 1782, the 
merited lots of 100 acres each were awarded to 
David Kneeland, Wm. Emerson, Asael Foster, 
Richard Peabody, Stephen Gates, James Flint, 
David Clark, and Timothy Gates, and to Benjamin 
Kimball and Jacob Stevens two lots each. Moody 
Bridges and Stephen Kimball afterwards received 
one lot each. 

These lands are now southeastern Harrison. 
Fifty acres of land and a house and shop ready 
built were given to Jesse Knapp, as an induce- 
ment to open a blacksmith shop. This was half 
a mile south of Bridgton village. 

In 1781 a joint committee of the surrounding 
towns removed the most prominent obstructions 
from the Songo "Ripplings" under the manage- 
ment of Capt. Kimball. A public saw-mill was 
built at the outlet of Wood's Pond, but in 1785, 
when nearly completed, was carried away by high 
water. It was rebuilt in 1786, and the next year 
sold at public auction, "pa3^able in any kind of 
produce," the buyer binding himself to receive the 
same kind of pay for sawing. 

Fear of Indians prevented rapid settlement, 



12 HISTORICAL. 

and sometimes sent families in alarm to Standish. 
After the close of the war, settlement advanced 
more rapidly, so that by 1787 the town contained 
39 families. Besides those mentioned, this 
number included Noah Beeman, John Davenport, 
Moses How, Jesse Knapp, Nathaniel Hale, 
Samuel, Asa and Richard Kimball, George Mead, 
John Porter, Thomas Symonds, Ephraim Jewett 
and William, Nathaniel and Abraham Burnham.

BRIDGTON VILLAGE 

In 1789, William Sears, of Beverl}^ Mass., 
purchased the two lots on Stevens' Brook, com- 
prising the older part of the village of Bridgton, 
and erected a grist-mill below the saw-mill at the 
outlet of Crotched Pond. He also erected the 
first tavern in the village, on the corner opposite 
the Bridgton House. A meeting-house was com- 
menced in 1790, and finished in 1798. Ten acres 
of land were laid out for a bmying-ground and 
training-field in 1792. A militia compan}^ w^as 
formed the same year, with Isaiah Ingalls, 
captain; Robert Andrews, lieutenant; and John 
Kilborn, ensign. This ground w^as for man}^ 
years the scene of patriotic training days, and 
brilliant with the red and blue uniforms and the 
w^hite cockades of the "Light Infanr}^" of Bridg- 
ton, w^ho were paid 20 cents each in cash, and 
took the balance of their pa}^ in a hearty enjoy- 
ment of the occasion. 

A post office was opened in 1800. By 1811 



14 HISTORICAL. 

the place had increased to a dozen dwellings 

Mr. Merrill kept a stock of goods in one room, 
and another store was located in one corner of the 
Sears tavern, afterwards the Pondicherry House, 
and Mr. Fairbrother was making his famous 
pumps. The girls of the neighborhood spun and 
wove for fifty cents a week, the carding and 
finishing establishment of Rufus Chase near the 
tannery bridge, or Artemus Brigham just below 
the grist-mill, preparing the wool for their use. 

Sixty years later we find a party of travelers 
from Plymouth, N. H., (Prof. King's party), 
alighting from a balloon at the door of the verit- 
able old hotel, in the midst of the most busy and 
populous village in Northern Cumberland County. 
At that time the one hundred and forty-three feet 
of waterfall in the stream passing through at the 
foot of the hill, supplied the motive power for 
13 mills and factories. 

In 1879 this number had increased to 23, and 
a population of 1400, supporting a union high 
school, newspaper, bank and telegraph-ofiice, and 
the village had acquired a creditable repute as a 
manufacturing centre. 



INCORPORATION 



Bridgton was incorporated as a town Feb. 7, 
1794. The first town meeting was held on the 



HISTORICAL. 15 

18th of March of the same year. Enoch Perley 
was chosen moderator; Isaiah Ingalls, town clerk; 
Phineas Ingalls, treasurer; Robert Andrews, James 
Flint and Joseph Sears, selectmen; Samuel Farns- 
worth, Enoch Perley and Joseph Sears, school 
committee; Samuel Kimball, Ephraim Jewett and 
David Hale, field drivers; James Flint, Samuel 
Farnsworth and David Hale, tythingmen; William 
Oliver and Timothy Gates, deer-reeves; and Reuben 
Ingalls, Samuel Davis and Asael Foster, hog- 
reeves. For that year the town raised the sum of 
^100 for the repair of highways; ^30 to defray 
town charges, and ^18 for the support of schools. 
There were 41 votes cast at this election. 

That portion to the east of Long Pond, form- 
ed}^ comprising part of Bridgton, and containing 
about 8,500 acres, was joined to Harrison in 1805; 
in 1834 2,500 acres, and in 1856 10 acres of the 
southeastern part were joined to Naples. A 
portion of Fryeburg north of the north line, and a 
part of Denmark, west of the west line then 
bounding this town, the whole amounting to 3700 
acres, were added to the northwest in 1847. This 
territor}^ is known as "Texas" the name being 
borrowed from the state newly annexed to the 
Union. The present area of the town is about 
30,000 acres. 

The population of this town in 1790 was 329; 
in 1800, 646; in 1810, 882; in 1820, 1166; in 1830, 



16 HISTORICAL. 

1451; in 1840, 1987; in 1850, 2710; in 1860, 2556; 
in 1870, 2685; in 1880, 2863; in 1890, 2605; and in 
1900, 2868. These figures sliow a gradual increase 
of population up to 1860, since which time it has 
varied slightly, but with little material advance or 
decline. The returns from the last census are the 
highest ever given, the figures showing five more 
than those of 1880. 

The valuation of real estate in this town 
during the last half centur}^ has shown a remark- 
able and steady increase; the figures given for 
1860 show the estates valued at $697,148; for 1870, 
$855,197, 1880, $1,102,613; 1890, $1,246,368; and 
for 1900, $1,345,986. 

From the completion of the first church, in 
1798, it served the joint purpose of church and 
town house, until the erection of the new church 
by the First Parish in 1834, when it was abandoned 
to the sole use of the town authorities. In March, 
1851, Moses Gould, John Kilborn, Luke Brown, 
Horace Billings, William T. Kilborn, Rensselaer 
Cram,- and John P. Perley were chosen a com- 
mittee to build the present town house, which 
was erected on the hill overlooking the lake and 
village: and was dedicated by a grand mass-meet- 
ing of the citizens of Bridgton, held Jan. 8, 1852. 
Hon. Nathaniel S. Littlefield was made president 
of the meeting, and an address was delivered by 
Hon. Marshall Cram, of Bridgton. This building 



HISTORICAL. 17 

was thoroughly remodeled in 1903, and an addition 
of 30 feet was made. It is now fitted with a fire- 
proof vault, is lighted by electricity, and is pro- 
vided with nice offices.

MILITARY MATTERS 



The militar}^ histor}^ of the town of Bridgton 
is a source of just pride. If one thing more than 
another is to be revered and commemorated, 
impressed upon the mind of the rising generation, 
that thing is the record of names and deeds of men 
who faced the dangers of the battlefield for the 
welfare and safety of their country. Time rolls 
on and we are apt to forget the value of the service 
rendered by the soldier in war. Each succeeding 
generation is more forgetful than its predecessor, 
unless it is taught to revere and love the memory 
of the deeds of the soldier. It should be in the 
heart of each father and each mother to instill 
into the minds of the youth the significance of the 
inscription, "Killed at Gettysburg", "Wounded 



22 HISTORICAL. 

before Vicksburg", or "Died in Libbj^ Prison". 
No one should lose the opportunity to impress 
upon the generation to which he belongs, and 
upon the one which follows, the responsibility 
which rests upon each man, or the gratitude we 
owe the memory of these noble patriots. 

The militar}^ histor}^ of this town begins 
almost with the settlement of the town, for the 
early pioneers found it necessary to be ever alert 
for the approach of the hostile Indian. In a few 
instances the fear of the natives caused the settlers 
to flee to Standish, the nearest fortified place, but 
the settlement never suffered any serious assault 
from this dreaded foe. 

Manj^ of the men who took up grants of land 
in town, either prior to or following the Revolution, 
fought in the American Arm}^ during that trying 
but successful struggle. Of these men were the 
following: 

Capt. John Kilborn, a minute-man of April 
19, 1775, enlisted as corporal, 1776; was at the 
storming of Stony Point, Ticonderoga; promoted 
sergeant, Dec. 1, 1777; was captain in 1780; moved 
to Bridgton 1794; died Sept. 8, 1842. 

Capt. Phineas Ingalls, a native of Andover, 
Mass., served throughout the war; died at Bridg- 
ton, Januar}^, 1844, aged 86. 

Lieut. John Ha5^ward was in the Acton, Mass., 
Militia, under Capt. Isaac Davis, at Concord, April 



HISTORICAL. 23 

19, 1775; took command of the company on the 
fall of Capt. Davis, and was the first to cross 
North Bridge, mider a heav}^ fire from the 10th 
Regulars. He participated in the battles of 
Bunker Hill, White Plains, Trenton, and Mon- 
mouth; removed to Bridgton at the end of the 
war, and lived with his son until his death, Feb. 
13, 1825, aged 84. 

Lieut. Robert Andrews, a native of Boxford, 
Mass., fought in the battles of Bunker and Breed's 
Hill; died at Bridgton, 1845, aged 92. 

Joseph Kimball served through the war under 
Washington; Ephraim Davenport served in the 
Northwest expedition; Asa Parker was under 
arms at the surrender of Burgoyne; Nathan Hale, 
and Isaac Ingalls also bore arms during the war. 

Jacob Hazen enlisted 1776, served three years; 
kept hotel at North Bridgton previous to 1800^ 
Stephen Gates, sergeant, came to Bridgton from 
Andover, Mass., in 1768; served through the war, 
went to Ohio in 1790. David Clark entered the 
Continental Arm}^ in 1776; served through the 
war; returned to Bridgton, where he died in 1831.

INDUSTRIAL ACCOUNT 



The earliest account of any industry of a 
mechanical nature in Bridgton is that of the saw 
mill built b}^ Jacob Stevens, according to contract 



26 HISTORICAL. 

made with the proprietors in 1768. Mr. Stevens 
was to have the mill ready for operation the fol- 
lowing October, to keep it in repair for a term of 
fifteen years, and to saw lumber at the halves; 
also to build a corn mill and to keep that in repair 
for twenty years, to give suitable attendance, and 
to require no more than lawful tole. In consider- 
ation of this he was to receive from the proprietors 
one right and one lot of land, a tax of $3 upon 
each valuable right in the township — amounting 
to $243 — also five acres of land on the stream 
running from Crotched Pond to Long Pond. 
What was probably the second saw mill in town 
was established in 1789 by William Sears. Soon 
a large lumbering industry was in operation, and 
several new mills sprung up on Bridgton's many 
water privileges. As the amount of timber in the 
locality became decreased this important industry 
has, in a measure, given way to a variety of 
manufacturing industries, and to the business of 
entertaining a large number of pleasure seekers, 
who find rest and vigor in this most delightful and 
healthful locality. Some of the finest and best 
kept hotels in the state are located in Bridgton, 
and the large number in operation during the 
summer season are sufficient to accommodate 
many hundreds of guests. 

Bridgton is also an agricultural town. Its 
populace has ever depended upon the fertile 



HISTORICAL. 27 

fields, their large herds, and the abundance of 
fruit, all of which have contributed ver}^ largely 
to the wealth of the town. 

PRESENT DAY MANUFACTORIES 

JPondiclierr'y Woolen Co, — A six-set mill built in 1866 
by R. H. & Frederick Storer of Portland and Alvin Davis and F. 
J. Littletield of Bridgton, for the manufacture of woolen goods, 
and employing 50 operatives, was the beginning of this industry, 
which is today one of the most extensive manufacturing plants in 
this part of the state. The Pondicherry Company was organized 
id 187d with Rufus Gibbs, president ; O. B. Gibbs, treasurer ; 
Wm. Iredale, superintendent. The company now operates two 
mills, the little mill situated on upper Main street and the big 
mill at the lower end of the village on lower Main street. The 
company employs 225, operates about 60 looms, and puts out 
about 18,000 yards of finished cloth weekly. The monthly pay 
roll is approximately $7,000. These mills were improved and 
enlarged some six years ago, and are now operated by both steam 
and water power. Shipments are made mostly through New York. 
The present officers are; S. M. Milliken, New York, president ; 
Horatio Clark, Portland, treasurer; G. W. Overend, Bridgton, 
superintendent. 

The JBridgtOii Marble Works were established by 
Hunt and Jewett, in 1849. In 1866, Howard & Steadraan suc- 
ceeded to the business and operated it twenty years when, in 1886, 
they sold to Jessie F. Frisbie, the present operator. The works 
are located on Gage street. They manufacture and sell bot^ 
foreign and domestic marble and granite for cemetery work. 

Jesse llurjihi/^s Sash, Door and Blind Factory 

was established by I. S. Hopkins in 1859. This was run by Per- 
ley & Stiles, and later by Simpson & Dickens. Mr. Murphy 



28 HISTORICAL. 

began business at the present stand in 1879. This is in a build- 
ing built by Rufus Gibbs some sixty or seventy years ago. 
Mouldings and finishings are also made, the entire plant manufac- 
ing between fifteen and twenty-five thousand feet of lumber annu- 
ally. 

The Canning JBusiness was established and built 
up by J. Winslow Jones. He began in 1865 when the plant was 
located on Main street. The Winslow Packing Co. succeeded 
Mr. Jones, and under their direction the factory was removed to 
Depot street. This next came into the possession of the Bridgton 
Canning Co., then was owned by A. H. Burnham, from whose 
heirs it was purchased in 1902 by Burnham & Morrill, of Port- 
land. An annual business of $3.50,000 is done, employing during 
the busy season about 100 hands. Geo. Burnham, Pres.; Fred 
K. Dodge, Mgr. 

Hall & Hamblen's grist mill was built by Stevens & 
Edwards, about 1882. Mr. Edwards sold to Stevens and for a 
time Mr. Stevens operated the business alone. About 1889 he 
sold to Webb & Dresser; in 1893 Mr. Webb sold his interest to 
H. A. Hall; and in 1899 Mr. Dresser sold his interest to G. R. 
Hamblen. The mill is located near the depot. 

TV, TF. Walker built his present mill and began business 
in 1895. This is located on Depot street, aud manufactures doors, 
sash moulding, interior and exterior finish, flooring and sheathing. 
He also has a shop on Mill street. 

The Forest Hills Co, was established in 1861 by 
Taylor & Perry. This business was incorporated in 1879 under 
the present firm name. One hundred aud thirty hands are 
employed in the manufacture of cheviots, cloakings and fancy 
cashmeres. This company has an annual output of 1250,000. 
William T. Perry is president, Horatio Clark, Portland, treasurer. 

«/. Jj, Halkett built his shop on Flint street, and began 



HISTORICAL. 29 

business about seven years ago. This is devoted to the manu- 
facturing dies and machinery for can making. The product is 
shipped throughout the U. S. and Canada. 

The HigJiland Crea^nerj/f located on Highland 
Ave., was built during the fall and winter of 1898, and is owned 
and run by the Portland Creamery Co., of Portland. This plant 
puts out a daily average of 150 gallons of heavy cream, besides 
manufacturing large quantities of butter. Byron E. Harnden is 
manager, assisted by Geo. F. Brooks. 

J. JB. CorseVf on Main St., is doing some business in 
carriage and sleigh making and repairing. A. B. Pratt, in the 
same building, also gives some attention to carriage making, aside 
from his wood working business. 

The Pveserit Tannery was built about ten years ago 
by a stock company, composed of local business men. Pember- 
ton Bros, operated the business for four years, then C. M. 
Phillips Co. for two years, at the end of which time the present 
company, A. B. Clark Co., of Peabody, Mass., took charge. 
They manufacture sheep and kid leather. Shipments are made 
through Boston, and other markets. From 30 to 50 men are 
employed during the busy season. In previous years two other 
tanneries have been located on the same site. The first establish- 
ed by Rufus Gibbs in 1836, was burned in 1854; the following 
year this was rebuilt, and was operated by Horace Billings at 
one time. The present works are managed by W. H. Pike. 

The Sridf/ton Litmber Co, was organized in Oct. 
1899; composed of the Forest Mills Co., and G. N. & F. H. 
Burnham. This company manufactures about a million feet of 
lumber yearly, besides a large amount of spool stock. Two mills 
are operated, one for long and short lumber, the other for boxes 
and house finish. Fifteen men are employed. F. H. Burnham 
is treasurer and manager. 



30 HISTORICAL. 

SridgtOil Machine Co., iron founders, machinists, 
and general mill work, was organized in July, 1887, and is com- 
posed of the Forest Mills Co., and G. N. & F. H. Burnham. 
This plant is managed by G. N. Burnham. The product consists 
of water wheels, shingle machines, shafting, pulleys and hangers. 
An average of six men are employed. 

There are also several manufacturing plants in Bridgton, 
located outside the village. These include Edward Bennett's 
Lumber Mill, and J. O. & G. F. Knapp's Box Manufactory at 
the south village; Seth E. Berry's and Abner Allen's Lumber 
Mills, and Allen & Sykes Grist Mill, at Sandy Creek: and H. F. 
Proctor & Son's Saw Mill, and C. R. Thomas' Wood Working 
Plant at North Bridgton. 



CHURCH AFFAIRS 



The settlers employed a preacher generally 
from three to five or six months a year, previous 
to 1784. 

FIRST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH 

On the 26th of August, that year, the church 
was organized by Rev. William Johnson. There 
were six members, all males ; eleven others were 
immediately added, making a membership of ten 
males and seven females. In 1788, Rev. Nathan 
Church, a Dartmouth College graduate, was called 
to the church by both the proprietors and the or- 
ganization. Mr. Church was supported by the 
proprietors until the town was incorporated in 



HISTORICAL. 31 

1794, when the inhabitants voted to receive him as 
their minister. 

The first meeting-house was built upon the 
ministerial lot opposite the present cemetery, and 
was first occupied in October, 1791. It was not 
completed until it came into the hands of the town 
in 1797, after which time it served the two-fold pur- 
pose of a church and a town house. 

In 1827, Rev. Mr. Church retired from his pul- 
pit ministrations on account of age and infirmity, 
and was succeeded the same year by Rev. Daniel 
Newell, who remained until 1830. Rev. Caleb F. 
Page was installed pastor in October, 1833, remain- 
ing until March 26, 1850. In 1834, the old meet- 
ing house was given up to the use of the town, and 
the second house of worship was erected. In this 
new building w^as hung the new bell, the gift of 
Richard Davis. On January 26, 1871, the present 
church which had been constructed on the site of 
its predecessors, was dedicated by Rev. E. P. Wil- 
son, then pastor. Aug. 26, 1884, the 100th anni- 
versary of the church was celebrated. In the fall 
of 1903, the church was thoroughly repaired and 
renovated at a cost of about $4,500. Five elegant 
memorial windows have been put in the past year. 

The following is a list of the men who have 
served the church in the capacit}^ of pastor since 
Rev. Mr. Page, with the dates of their installation 
and dismissal: Revs. Josiah T. Hawes, 1851-1865; 



32 HISTORICAL. 

Franklin E. Fellows, 1866-1868; E. P. Wilson sup- 
plied from September, 1869, until ordained, Jan. 26, 
1871, serving until July, 1872; John T. Rea, 1873- 
1876; Henry B. Carpenter, 1876-78; Osgood W. 
Rogers, now of Oklahoma, November, 1878-83; 
during his pastorate nearly forty members were 
received; T. M. Davies, 1883-86; Benj. M. Wright, 
1886-87; Charles Harbutt, 1888-1893; during this 
pastorate over fifty were received into member- 
ship; Gainer P. Moore, 1893-94; Geo. M. Wood- 
well, 1894-Sept., 1900; John B. Saer, the present 
incumbent, became pastor April, 1901. Since this 
time 21 members have been added. The present 
membership, Dec. 1, 1904, consists of 26 males and 
89 females. There is quite a flourishing Christian 
Endeavor Society connected. 

BAPTISTS 

Attempts were made by the Baptists to be sepai-ated from the 
established church in 1794, but were unsuccessful. Their church 
was not established until 1807, when Rev. Ebenezer Bray organ- 
ized a church. The name adopted was " The Harrison and 
Bridgton Particular Baptist Church." From 1807 to 1812, its 
membership increased to 30. The church was released from sup- 
porting the old church in 1812, and a revival added largely to 
their numbers, enabling them to erect a house of worship in 1815. 
In ■1832, it was rebuilt and greatly enlarged, and a bell added. 
In 1827, the Harrison church established separately, and in 1833, 
another church in Sweden, both by members of this church. In 
1838-39, a large number left the parent church to organize on a 
more liberal basis as Free Baptists. The old members clung to 



HISTORICAL. 33 

the belief of tbeir fathers, and were enabled to build a new meet- 
ing house in 1853, but receiving but little support from the 
younger people, this society gi'adually faded into the past and is 
now but a memory. 

SOUTH BRIDGTON PARISH CONGREGATIONAL 

In the year 1825, the citizens of South Bridgton united in 
building a meeting house which should be free for the use of all 
ministers in good standing. This stood opposite the new church, 
and was dedicated Nov. 15, 1828. The church was formed Dec. 
30, 1829, by ten members. 

A donation of 11,000 each by Enoch Perley and Lieut. Robert 
Andrews had been previously made to the Bridgton Church to 
revert to South Bridgton Parish on the settlement of a minister. 
Thomas Perley of Boxford, Mass., presented $645, and Enoch 
Perley paid a sufficient sum to make, with the amount bequeathed 
in his will, a fund of |5,000 for the support of the ministry in 
this parish. 

Rev. J. Fessenden was pastor from 1830 to his death in 1861. 
lie sleeps in the Lakeside Cemetery, surrounded by his followers. 
Rev. S. G. Narcross remained one year. Rev. B. F. Man well 
was installed in 1862; dismissed 1868. The succeeding pastors 
have been: Rev. Addison Blanchard, 1868-1872; J. W. Brown- 
ville, 1873-1877; Holland G. Fry, 1877-1879. 

A Gothic building of excellent design was erected by S. F. 
Perley, John P. Perley, Darwin Ingalls, Edwin Fessenden, and 
A. J. Murcb, committee, at an expense of 110,000, and dedicated 
July 14, 1871. We have been unable to obtain a complete 
account of this church to the present time. 

CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH 

The Congregational Church, North Bridgton, was formed 
Nov. 15, 1832. The original members were thirteen, most of whom 



34 HISTORICAL. 

took letters of dismission from the First Congregational Church, 
Bridgton. Rev. Charles Soule was installed iirst pastor in January, 
1833. Meeting house was erected in 1834. ThejJastors have been 
Rev. Charles Soule, a graduate of Bowdoin, '21; served from 
Nov. 15, 1832, to Dec. 31, 1834. Mr. Soule was followed by 
Rev. Owen Burnham, who began work January, 1835, and died 
in office at North Bridgton, June 2, 1836, aged 40. Next came 
Rev. Joseph Searle, who served this church jointly with Harrison 
from July, 1837, to July, 1841. Rev. Leonard W. Harris 
preached from September, 1842, to August, 1852, being ordained 
pastor Nov. 1, 1842. Rev. Horace Wellington, from May, 1853, 
to October, 1854. Rev. John Dudd came next, serving this 
Church jointly with the Congregational Church at Harrison, from 
Jan. 1855 to SejJtember 1858. The next joint pastor of the 
Churches named, was Rev. Edward S. Palmer, from January, 
1859, to January, 1861. Rev. Leonard W. Harris returned April, 
1861, and continued till Sept. 1866. Rev. Ernest F. Borchers, a 
native of Berlin, Prussia, followed Mr. Harris, from April 1, 
1868 to Oct. 1871. Next came Rev. Nehemiah Lincoln, Oct. 
1871, to Nov. 26, 1887. Mr. Lincoln's pastorate was the longest 
in the history of the church. Rev. Henry A. Freeman served 
four years, till May 13, 1892, and was succeeded by Rev. Arthur 
G. Fitz, who began work Oct. 2, 1892, and died in office Mar. 3, 
1902. The present pastor is Rev Fred E. Winn, who began his 
term April 1, 1903. The church has had the following deacons: 
Stephen Beeman, Aaron Beeman Jr, Asa Gould, Luke Brown, 
Edwin A. Cobb, Charles II. Gould and Frank 0. Chadbourne; 
the two last named now filling the office. Since its formation the 
church has had but three clerks: Dr. Moses Gould, Oliver 
Barnard, and the pi'esent incumbent, Dea, Frank O. Chadbourne. 
The present membership is 70, of whom 12 are non-residents. 
The church building, erected in 1834, was in 1896, remodeled and 
thoroughly repaired, at a cost of some |2,400, 



HISTORICAL. 35 

FREE AVILL BAPTIST CHURCH 

The records of this church previous to 1848 were destroyed 
by fire. The first church was erected on the present site at Sandy 
Creek, in 1834. Rev. Gideon Perkins was the pastor. Revs. 
Joseph Phinney and Darling Huntress were also pastors previous 
to 1836. After this date, Revs. Hubbard Chandler, John Pike, 
N. W. Plummer, John Pinkhara, E. C. Willey, Hubbard Chand- 
ler, David Libby, Royal McDonald, licentiate; John Pike, E. G. 
Eaton, John Pinkhara, Gideon Perkins, John Pinkham, Joseph 
Hutchinson, Charles VV. Foster. 

The church was rebuilt by the Ladies Industrial Society in 
1877, and rededicated the same year. 

UNIVERSALIST CHURCH 

Of the old Universalist Church of Bridgton there is but little 
record left save the memory of the old meeting house erected in 
1889. The settled pastors who taught there were Rev. James A. 
Bartlett, Rev. Zenas Thompson, Rev. PZdwin T. Quimby, Rev. 
Reuben M. Byron, and Rev. Costello Weston. 

The church was reorganized under the labors of Rev. L. F. 
McKenney, and, Sept. 1, 1870, their new churcii was dedicated. 
On the 22nd, Rev. Mr. MeKenney, now of Brooklyn, N. Y., was 
ordained and installed as pastor. This church was then entering 
upon .a period of great activity. In 1873, Rev, O. A. Rounds 
succeeded to the pastorate, remaining until 1877. The present 
pastorate under the Rev. Hannah J. Powell began the first of 
November, 1903. The society now .finds itself on a more solid 
basis than for some years previous. It is small, but harmonious, 
its various activities are well organized, and it is set to the pace 
of a steady advance. 

ULETHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH 

A class was started by Rev. Geo. D. Strout in 1834, but no 
regular preaching was had for several years after this time. 



36 HISTORICAL. 

The first chun^h was built by the society in 1852. During 
the pastorate of Rev. Mr. Cobb, in 1869, a second building was 
erected on land purchased by the Ladies Sewing Circle; the 
money for the building being advanced by W. H. Larrabee. 

List of pastors since 1840: — Many years the pulpit was 
supplied by men not given in the following list. J. Simpson and

Extensive repairs, costing $3,000, have been made on the church, 
since the arrival of the present pastor, also a fine pipe organ has 
been given by the Beacon sisters. The present valuation, $11,800. 
Present membership, including probationers, 201. An Epworth 
League of 40 members, a Junior League of 25, and an Intermedi- 
ate League of 20 members are connected with the church. The 
Sunday School numbers about 150. 

ADVENTIST CHRISTIAN CHURCH 

Late in the year 1869, Elders I. G. Wellcome, E. M. Hag- 
gett and J. A. Libby come to Bridgton and began to preach the 
distinctive doctrines of this church. 

In 18V6, Elder J. A. Sibly returned accompanied by Elder 
W. H. Mitchell, and held meetings in Centi-al Hall. Again in 
December, 1879, Elder Libby returned with Elder Jared Whit- 
man, and several conversions and baptisms resulted. 

A mid-week prayer meeting was established in Bennett's 
hall and a Sunday School organized, 



HISTORICAL. 37 

lu 1885, it was decided to organize a church and erect a 
suitable place for public worship. On April 29, of the same year, 
Elder Whitman organized the First Second Adventist Christian 
Church of Bridgton, with twenty-four charter members. 

A lot was at once purchased and on July 29, they held a pub- 
lic service in their own church. 

In the following August, regular preaching was resumed. In 
1885, the building was complete, and on Sunday, Nov. 22, was 
formally dedicated. 

In April, 1887, a call was given Dr. A. W. Taylor to take 
pastoral charge of the church. Following is a list of pastors with 
their terms of service: 

Dr. A. W. Taylor, J88V-89; J. Denton, 1890-91; J. Jefferey, 
1894-95; H. H. Tucker, 1895-97; F. N. Johnson, 1898-1900;- C. 
W. Shattuck, 1900-'02; J. A. Nichols, January, 1902. 

In the year 1901, during the pastorate of Elder C. W. Shat- 
tuck, the church erected a parsonage on Green street near to the 
church. 

The membership and following of this church, under the 
labors of its founders aud its pastors, have grown to considerable 
proportions. 



SCHOOL ITEMS 



At the time of its organization the town com- 
prised four school districts, known as the " North- 
erly, Westerly, and Middle districts, and the South- 
erly " district, where 27 Ingalls children attended 
the same school. Eighteen pounds was voted for 
teachers' wages. Daniel Bridgham, Simeon Burn- 
ham, Abner Dodge, and Robert Andrews were 



38 HISTORICAL. 

made each a committee to build a schoolhouse in 
his respective district. The Academy was incor- 
porated in 1808. The town was reorganized, form- 
ing eleven districts in 1821, under an appropriation 
of $300, new school houses built, and in 1827, the 
Academy moved from the Masonic Hall to North 
Bridgton. By 1852, the number of scholars had 
increased to 1150, residing in 21 districts, main- 
tained at an expense of $1709, $1500 of which was 
raised by the town. Various private schools were 
sustained previous to the opening of the high 
school in 1873. 

In the year 1903, there were 823 scholars in 
the town of Bridgton, being an increase of 71 over 
the census taken the preceding year. The largest 
registration during the school year was during the 
fall term when 512 were enrolled; of these pupils 
347 were in the village schools, and 165 in the rural 
schools; thus 68 per cent, of the school attendance 
is at the village schools. 251 of these attended the 
schools in the building standing on the high school 
lot, 190 of which were in the high school building. 
There are 14 school buildings in town. Twenty 
teachers are employed; 36 weeks of school held at 
the high school, and 33 at all other schools. 

A special teacher is now employed to teach art 
and music in all the town schools. Most of the 
teachers employed are graduates of Normal schools, 
and show a thorough preparation by the excellent 



HISTORICAL. 39 

work done. The school buildings are all in good 
repair, and the schools well supplied with modern 
text books. In 1903, $7600 was expended for sup- 
porting the seventeen public schools, of which 
number five are rural, and twelve village schools. 

BRIDGTON HIGH SCHOOL 

The high school building, located near the 
center of the town, was erected in 1872 at an ex- 
pense of $12,000. It was dedicated Jan. 25, 1873. 
The first term was opened in December, 1872, with 
A. G. Bradstreet, principal, assisted by Miss Josie 
E. Gerry. On the opening of the spring term of 
1873, A. F. Richardson, A. M., of Bowdoin Col- 
lege, became principal and retained the position 
for several years. In July of the same year the 
school was graded and courses laid out, but the 
standard first adopted has been graduall}^ advanced 
keeping the school well abreast of the leading high 
schools of the state. It is a fitting school whose 
certificate admits the student to our Maine colleges 
without examination. The building has been re- 
modeled, and an addition of two rooms made dur- 
ing the past five years, at an expense of $1260. It 
has a well equipped physical and chemical labora- 
tory. Its average attendance during 1903 was 11 . 
For four 3^ears previous to the spring of 1903 Chas. 
T. Stone was principal; he was then succeeded b}^ 
George R. Gardiner, the present principal. The

other teachers are Grace M. Wyman and Blance 
Brackell, assistants; Florence C. Wade, music; 
Dora L. Kirwin, elocution. C. E. Cobb is superin- 
tendent. 

BRIDGTON ACADEMY 

Probably Bridgton is best and most widely 
known because of its academy, which for nearly a 
century has been a leading educational factor in 
western Maine. Its location is in the beautiful 
village of North Bridgton, on the shore of Long 
Lake. Its act of incorporation by legislative enact- 
ment of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts is 
dated March 6th, 1808. The first meeting of the 
Trustees was held at North Bridgton, Sept. 1st of 
that year, and Rev. Nathan Church was elected 
president. His successors have been: Hon. 
Nathaniel Howe, Rev. John A. Douglass of Water- 
ford, Rev. Joseph P. Fessenden, Dr. Moses Gould, 
Hon. George Pierce of Harrison and Hon. Edward 
Flint Brown of New York City, the present incum- 
bent. The success of Bridgton Academy in no 
small measure has been due to such principals as 
Samuel Blood, Hazaleel Cushman, Rev. Valentine 
Little, Jonas Burnham, Rev. Charles Soule, Rev. 
Thomas T. Stone, Rev. Jacob Chapman, Moses 
Soule, William M. Baker, Alfred Owen; Rev. 
Ebenezer Bean, Charles E. Hilton, John G. Wight. 
Isaac Bassett Choate, John F. Moody, Llewellyn

McCormick are Henry G. Porter, Dartmouth; Miss 
Frances Libby, Wellesley; Miss Putnam, Bates. 

Among the Alumni to which this institution 
points with pride are such names as Seba Smith, 
Jr., Cyrus Hamlin, D. D., Samuel C. Fessenden,

Geo. M. Bodge, Hon. Melville E. Ingalls, Com- 
mander Robert E. Peary, Dr. Edwin R. Chad- 
bourne, and a host of others well known in every 
walk of life. The buildings consist of the main 
recitation building erected in 1827, and remodeled 
in 1890 through the generosity of President Ed- 
ward F. Brow^n and Hon. Melville E. Ingalls; 
" Academy Hall," or the chapel, erected in 1879; 
" Ingalls Hall," the gift of Hon. Melville E. In- 
galls, erected in 1892; and the Museum, which con- 
tains interesting and valuable natural history col- 
lections and curios. In 1900, the Rev. Edward 
Everett Hale visited this academy and in the Sep- 



42 HISTORICAL. 

tember number of his " Lend-a-hand Record " 
occurs the following over his signature: " Do you 
know any thoroughly nice boy or girl, say sixteen 
or seventeen years old, who wants to study and do 
solid work in an excellent academy where the 
teachers know how to teach ? If you do, send 
them to (North) Bridgton Academy. For years 
they have been sending out first-rate men and 
women, and they are better equipped than ever. 
Mr. Ingalls, the great railroad man, is one of the 
graduates. He has been building them an admir- 
able gymnasium, with a refectory and better ar- 
rangements for all that. There is a nice working 
library and a capital reading room. ***** 
Your bright boy or girl will hardly do better than 
to go there."

FACTS OF INTEREST 



Bridgton Village Corporation was incorporated 
March 1, 1854, for the purpose of instigating and 
maintaining an efficient fire department, employ- 
ing a night watchman, and lighting the streets. 



48 HISTORICAL. . 

The first officers were George G. Wight, clerk 
Augustus Perley, treasurer; and William W. Cross, 
Benjamin Walker, and Reuben Ball, assessors. 
The present officers are: F. A. Webb, clerk; W. 
M. Dunn, treas; and J. G. Hamblen, F. C. Gibbs, 
and Willis E. Mariner, assessors. 

The Bridgton and Harrison Electric Co. was 

estahlisbed in the year 1896. In 1901, the Bridgton Water Co. 
was established, and the following year the two companies consol- 
idated under the present name. 

The village is well lighted by this plant, located at the lower 
village. There are live arcs and 143 incandescent lights to 
illuminate the streets, and 1248 for use in the mills, stores, shops 
and residences. 

The water system in town consists of a stand pipe, located 
west of the village, having a capacity of 400,000 gallons; a 
pumping station taking the water from Highland Lake; and a 
network of supply pipes to which are attached 50 hydrants, eleven 
of which are private. The lowest water pressure is 50, and the 
highest i20 pounds. Auxilliary power to the capacity of 450 
horse power is also had. C. A. Bodwell is president; F. C. 
Knight, treasurer. 

T7ie Bridgton Savings Bank, was incoporated in 
1869, with William W Cross, President; Rufus Gibbs, Treasurer; 
Geo. W. Wight, Assistant Treasurer. Rufus Gibbs became 
president three years later. This institution has had a steady 
increase of business, being patronized by the entire surrounding 
rural section and is now in a prosperous condition. 

The Songo Lake, Songo Biver, and Bay of 
Naples Steamboat Co. whicli ojjerates the well known line 
so fully described in the name, was established fifty years ago. 



HISTORICAL. 48a 

During the last five years their business has increased from 3,600 
passengers in 1899 to 16,200 in 1904. The old stage coach which 
has been used in Bridgton to convey passengers from the wharf 
to the Center will now be set aside, replaced by the more 
comfortable and modern electric railroad. The Highland 
Steamboat Company, organized about four years ago, and the 
Bridgton & Saco River Railroad, the famous "narrow-gauge" 
which connects with the Maine Central at Bridgton Junction, 
together with the first named and the new electric line, give to 
this town excellent facilities for travel and commerce. The three 
old established lines are all well known to the summer tourist and 
pleasure seeker, and the charms of Bridgton as a summer resort 
whose varied scenery and invigorating climate are unexcelled by 
any locality in Maine are attested to by the ever increasing host 
who share its hospitality each season. 

THE BRIDGTON PUBLIC LIBRARY. 

Located near the center of this village is the Bridgton Public 
Library. This institution represents the unfailing loyalty of those 
few citizens who have the best interests of the community at heart 
and have unselfishly given of their time and means to make 
possible a source of supply of the best literature. 

The present collection of books and the model library building 
is the result of the modest, yet business like project that was 
commenced in 1895. In the summer of that year a few citizens 
formed a corporation, known as the Bridgton Public Library. It 
was arranged that each member should pay one dollar for 
membership which also entitled him to the use of the library for 
one year. These subscriptions are the sole support of the 
institution. 

In February, 1900, five years later, through the untiring 
energy of Mrs. George W. Newcomb, Miss Clara G. Fogg, who 
presented the lot on which the edifice stands, and a few other 



48b HISTORICAL. 

ladies, sufficient funds were raised to erect the present library 
building. Together with its equipment it represents an 
expenditure of about $3,000. The Library now possesses a total 
of 3,000 volumes. In the review of the founding of the Bridgton 
Public Library injustice would be done were not mentioned the 
names of Judge A. H. Walker, George \\. Newcomb, VV. M. 
Staples, Rev. George M. Woodwell, Mrs. Juliette F. Wardwell, 
Mrs. Laura Dresser Knowltou, Mrs. Abby Mitchell Nagle, Mrs. 
Charles Gleason, Mrs. Grace C. Abbott and Mrs. Agnes Haskell. 
The present officers are Norman H. Libby, President; Frank P. 
Bennett, Clerk; Dr. E. S. Abbott, Treas.; and Mrs. Grace C. 
Abbott, Librarian. The Library is open each Tuesday and 
Saturday afternoon from 2 to 5 o'clock.

The population of the town of Bridgton has been arranged 
in famihes where that arrangement has been possible. In these 
families, in addition to the resident living members, the names 
of the non-resident members are included. It should be borne 
in mind that this plan does not include the names of all former 
residents of this town, as the names of non-residents appear only 
when one or both the parents are still living in the town. After 
the name of each non-resident will be found the present address, 
when such address has been given to us. The non-residents 
are indicated by the (*). 

In case a daughter in a family has married, her name taken 
in marriage will appear after her given name in paientheses 
( ), preceded by a small (m). 

Following the names of the population is the occupation. 
To designate thci occupations we have used the mure common 
abbreviations and contractions. Some of these follow : Farmer 
— far; carpenter — car; railroad service — R U ser ; student, a 
member of an advanced institution of learning — stu ; pupil, a 
member of a lower grade of schools — pi ; housework — ho ; 
laborer — lab; pliysician and surgeon — phy & sur ; clergyman — 
clerg; merchant — mer; teacher — tr ; blacksmith — blk ; clerk — 
cl ; book-keepei" — bk kpr ; lawyer — law ; mechanic — mech ; 
engineer — eng; insurance — ins; maker — mkr; worker — wkr ;

— mar; poultry — pit; mill operative — mill op; electrician — elec; 
painter — ptr ; carriage work^ — car wk ; dress maker — dr mkr; 
traveling salesman — sales.
